CLOSE OF DILLON'S TRIAL.
Disagreement Of the Jury Expected
Powerful Speeches for the Defense.

Special Cable Dispatch to THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, Feb. 24.-The trial OF Dillon and his
friends will close to-day. II is expected the jury
will disagree. The only result OF the expensive,
protracted prosecution has been to afford at the
expense OF the government rostrum from which
the ablest and most popular advocate In Ireland
could preach sedltiOn. Some OF the speeches in
defense OF the traversers have been singulary
eloquent and powerful. As instruments OF propa-
ganda they are admirably calculated TO cover the
authorities with confusion Against the combined
for the defense Sergeant O'Brien's face OF brass
and voice OF thunder avaied but little. especially
as Healy had 1ngeniOuSly Deutralized the learned
sergeant'S eloQuence by admirably opposite quo
tationS from the fiery rhetoric with which In 1882
he defended Parnell and the sacred cause OF agi-
tatlon."

the traversers had united in agreeing TO urge the
people to do what the indictment alleged the
traversers had acted unlawfully. The Judge then
concluded his charge, and the Jury retired 10 con-
slider their verdict. After short absence from
the courtroom they returned and reported that
they were not able to agree upon a verdict.

New York, June 6-The latest move OF
the general executive board Of the knights of
Labor against the members of district assem-
bly, No. 1875 is fully explained in circular
which is signed by John W. Hayes, secretary
of the general executive board, and reads
somewhat as follows:
The carpets made by Higgins & Co. Of New
York, are of kind we can not recommend You
will please send committees to dealers who sell
carpets made by that firm and tel them what you
think about the carpets. and that il they do not
stop selling them you will advise people TO deal
elsewhere
As soon as the secretary of local assembly
in this city received the circular he tele-
graphed TO T. V. Powderly; "Have received
Hayes Higgins infamous circulars. You had
better withdraw boycott at once, or I'll make
trouble for YOU Local assemblies in this
city that have had time to act on the docIl-
ment have treated it with scorn Many
Knights of Labor here say that the executive
board is making a serious mistake
Mr.. Henry L. Mershon, one of the offend
ing members of District Assembly, No l26,
said with regard 10 the matter that it was a
great mistake for knights to boycott their
brethren. II simply means that the Home
club is bound to follow up relentlessly No.
l2t until it has crushed it out of existence.
1t was found to be the general opinion among
the members of l26 that the result of the boy
colt would be to induce the American public to
patronize the goods of the firms in which the
boycotted knights were employed
MIR. Il, S. Higgins, the proprietor of the
carpet works, said: at is not fight between
the firm and the men. 1t is simply fight
between l26 AMI 49, We happen TO be in it

Prof Parker makes q Successful As
cent at Black Hawks Watch Tower
"A Good Attraction for the Fourth
Quite crowd were at Black Hawks
watch tower Saturday afternoon, to wits
ness the balloon ascension by Prof. A.: S.
Parker, and hear the fine music discoursed
by the Great Western band of Davenport
under the leadership of Prof. Otto. A
collection was taken up for the aeronaut,
and il was after o'clock before the bal
loon WAS inflated. The hot air was fur
nished by burning sugar slaves covered
with kerosine oil, in furnace over
which the balloon was suspended. When
everything was ready for the ascent Prof.
Parker grabbed the trapeze ropes, and
the balloon shot up through the trees
with considerable velocity. The band
PLAYED and the people shouted and clapp-
ed their hands. There was scarcely any air
stirring, and the balloon went straight up
to distance between 5000 and 5000 feet,
when it commenced to descend. 1t came
down quite rapidly, and as it neared the
ground, fears were expressed that it
would fall among the trees But it came
down directly in the road way, about fifty
feet from where it was inflated. The air
had about all escaped, but the rapidity of
the descent was checked by the parachute.
The ascension was quite novelty to
many, and much enjoyed.
Prof. Parker is farmers son, and was
raised in Canoe Creek township. which is
still his home. About three years ago he
conceived the idea Of making aerial as
cents. BY seeing Dalloonist at the Hills-
dale fair He made his first balloon out
of common muslin. and tried il on the
farm. He afterwards purchased his
present balloon and has made abou,
a dozen ascents He is of an adventure
some spirit and says he likes to go up
toward the clouds He has brother
who has gone up several times. 1t is
said his father is very strongly opposed
to the dangerous sport, and has offered
his son tempting Inducements to give W
the business, but in vain. Many who saw
his ascent on Saturday are in favor Of
having hiT give an exhibition ON the
Fourth and it is very likely that the
committee will try to make arrangements
with him for tina: day. He is contem-
| plating making tour of western fairs
